What is a web proxy ?

A web proxy acts as a middleman between you(i.e the cilent) and the website you want to visit(the target site).A web proxy service fetches the website you want to visit , encrypts the page hence the term "proxy" and then send you the encrypted page hiding your IP address in the process as the target websites sees the proxy IP address rather than yours.

Common usage of web proxy

A web proxy is often used for the following reasons:

To evade website censorship - ISP often monitor and censor certain websites on the goverment orders

To protect once's privacy from prying eyes

To bypass Geo-based restrictions - For e.g watching youtube videos restricted only to a certain country anywhere in the world

To enhance their browsing experience(no popups)

Limitations of a web proxy

Web proxies are mainly used to bypass website censorship and cannot fully protect your privacy on the internet.Indeed a web proxy service by its nature is limited only to the browser.To anonymise your whole internet traffic , a paid VPN is needed.
